Let f : A → B and g : B → C. For each statement below either prove it or construct f, g, A, B, C which show that the statement is false.

(a) If g ◦ f is surjective, then g is surjective.

(b) If g ◦ f is surjective, then f is surjective.

(c) If g ◦ f is injective, then f and g are injective

Let f:A→B and g:B→C be maps. Prove that if g◦f is a bijection, then f is injective and g is surjective.*You may not use, without proof, the result that if g◦f is surjective then g is surjective, and if g◦f is injective then f is injective. In fact, doing so would result in circular logic.

For an abelian group G, let tG = {x E G: x has finite order} denote its torsion subgroup.

Give an example of a surjective homomorphism f for which t(f) is not surjective.
